7:14 am

>> reporter: good morning. donald trump and his inner circle believe this battleground state as well as north carolina and iowa and ohio are as good as one, even though public polls don't suggest that. they also see something no one else see and virginia a competitive race. so much so that trump and his running mate mike pence we are told will soon make campaign stops there. with its own unique prospect on the data and mood of this campaign, the trump campaign is nothing, if not confident. >> in six days, we are going to win the great state of florida. >> reporter: conserving in the conservative florida panhandle donald trump joked he could be his own worst enemy. >> no side tracks, donald. nice and easy. nice and easy, because i've been watching hillary the last few days and totally on a hinge. >> reporter: trump called his visit to the region a gift to his local followers. >> they did a poll of your area and i tell you, we are through the roof. >> reporter: and teased advisers who had urged him to campaign,

7:15 am

7:16 am

campaign colleagues writing, additional chances for mischief. >> the spread of political agendas into the justice department has never been a thing like this that has happened in our country's history. >> reporter: the clinton campaign declined to comment on that particular e-mail exchange. as for get out the vote operations? the trump campaign and republican national committee have spend all they intend to spend and now until election day every dollar raised will be plowed into trump tv commercials. >> thank you, major. president obama appeared to criticize the fbi director's handling of the newly discovered e-mails linked to hillary clinton. the president said, yesterday, that investigation should not operate on, quote, incomplete information. during a campaign appearance, he told north carolina college students, he has confidence in clinton. she is working hard to win arizona with its large latino population. nancy cordes is in phoenix. >> we have a real chance to turn this state blue again.

7:17 am

>> reporter: clinton told a crowd of 15,000, outside phoenix, that trump's immigration proposals would rip families apart. >> we, americans, don't like to see people treated like criminals or traitors or strangers because of their race or religion. >> reporter: earlier in las vegas she painted a grim picture of trump in the white house. >> if you're latino, you know what life would be like, because we have a president who doesn't see you as american. >> reporter: in nevada, where nearly 30% of the population is latino, democrats are leading republicans in early voting 43% to 37%. in florida, hispanics early votering has doubled since 2012 which would offset a dip in the african-american turnout. she needs both groups after polls show the race is tightening after the fbi e-mail

7:18 am

investigation. obama criticized the fbi director for alerting congress about new e-mails that may or may not be significant. >> i do think that there is a norm that, you know, when there are investigations, we don't operate on innuendo, we don't operate on incomplete information, we don't operate on links. >> reporter: up until now, the white house has taken pains not to take look like it's taking sides in the fight between the campaign and the fbi but the president went a different route saying that the fbi already concluded this summer that clinton made a mistake by using a private server but didn't do anything criminal. >> thank you, nancy. we will bring you the results as they come on election night and we will all be on duty. norah, charlie, bob schieffer and elaine kquijano and scott pelley. two american servicemembers were killed overnight in

surveillance video captured the moment the battery in an e-cigarette exploded in a man's pocket and he was waiting outside of a nightclub in france at the time. he suffered severe burns and says he plans to soup the manufacturer. that looks like that hurts. >> fire in the pot. >> note to self. the legal fight over exploding phones is escalating. samsung faces a first class

7:42 am

action lawsuit targeting several of its smartphones. beyond the recall of the note 7. the complainant filed yesterday in california claims that the samsung note 5, 6, 7 phones all pose a risk of overheating fire and explosion. now samsung told "cbs this morning" we don't comment on pending litigation. but we would like to underscore that the issues with the galaxy note 7 are isolated to only that model. potentially flammable lithium ion batteries are in many electronics including samsung phones. the department of energy is w k working on creating an alternative. jan crawford is in a lab in maryland where they are sphowin promising results. >> reporter: we are at a lab in university of maryland where this small ceramic device is replacing the combustible components of a lithium ion

7:43 am

battery. this is like the lithium solution in our phones? exactly. >> reporter: research scientists are showing us how they plan to build a better battery, one that can't catch fire. the disc on the left is coated with a combustible carbon-based solution typically what is used in all of the lithium ion batteries powering today's smartphones. it is then exposed to an open flame. >> that's what happens. >> reporter: that's what happens. on the right is a lithium conducting ceramic disc designed in this campus lab. >> we can handle thousands of this without any issues. >> because it's ceramic you cannot burn it. >> reporter: eric wachsman is director of the center where nearly 20 projects are being funded by the department of energy to find alternatives to store energy. >> it's just been a push to get more energy out of the battery. you want it to last longer. you want the electronics to do more. you know? this is not a typical phone for

7:44 am

example, to samsung. it's basically a minicomputer. you're putting all of that information, all of that processing power in a very, very small device and you want the battery to also be small. >> reporter: after samsung's new smartphone started catching fire, professor wachman's nearly three-year endeavor to create a noncombustible battery started getting a lot more attention. has your phone started ringing off the hook? >> we have been contacted by numerous companies all over the world, both e-mail and phone. >> reporter: where are we now in terms of the development? >> so this size is fine for, you know, the little batteries, the little coin cells you might see that go into hearing aids or whatever, small little round ones, but to get the larger sizes is a matter of scaling up the size. >> i hear stories about few battery advancements all the time. it's always just a question of whether that is something that will really pan out. let's take a look. >> reporter: eric limer is the editor of popular mechanics.com.

7:45 am

higher than anywhere else in the country for every single thing we do with health care and everybody involved, except the doctors and the nurses, is making way too much money. >> let me just -- two things here. one, what is happening to health coverage in general. but, secondly, tell me one more time, is obamacare doing what it was promised to do. >> obamacare promised to do two things. it promised to make health care more accessible to more people. >> and it did that? >> by giving them subsidized insurance coverage. it did that. it also kind of promised vaguely, because it was a promise they could never keep, it was going to do something to control the cost of health care. it has nothing for that. frankly, most health care experts were saying that at the time. i was on this show a couple of years ago, my book came out and i said it's going to goed into to take care of the cost of health care. >> why -- >> yeah, i see a solution. >> why aren't either of the candidates talking about, then, addressing the rising costs of

8:39 am

health care that affect everyone whether you're on obamacare or not? >> let's be fair. >> hillary has talked about it a lot. >> let's be fair. drug costs are less than 10% of health care. >> that's wrong. >> that's right. cdc. >> drug costs our personal bills are 10%. drug costs in hospitalizations look like they are hospital costs. that is another 10%. so it's 20%. >> whatever the numbers are, they are not all of health care. and what we are seeing is 5% of people spending 50% of the dollars of the affordable care act. so a number of people who are very ill are taking a disproportionate portion of the resources. one of the things we have to talk about and get to is get those people into programs so they don't spend so much and how can really reform health. >> that's not just obamacare but true in general. >> it's not new. we have known that. >> we have known that but seen the figures jump out at us and we need to address that. >> people are getting older and we still have the same systems before, which is the more tests

a doctor does, the more exams, the more everybody gets paid. and obamacare does have pilot projects that try to go after that. they haven't really been successful so far. but the core issue is we have to do something about the price of health care. it is monopoly market. if you have a cancer drug that you need, you're going to buy it and someone is going to be forced to buy it no matter what it costs for you. >> the issue of paid family leave and sick leave. donald trump supports that? that issue as well? >> on the companies he runs. he doesn't support it there. >> but he has supported it as a candidate? >> he supports it as a hypothetical like a lot of other things. >> okay. >> thank you. >> i think the summary really is affordable care act help people. both candidates want to change it but this is a bipartisan issue. health care not partisan. i think that is really the message. >> but politically, it's very partisan.

8:41 am

>> it is partisan you have abortion, yes, no. partisan because they want the term obamacare kicked out. no matter how you do it, you're not going to be able to remove health care from 20 million people so the parties have to work together. >> it's not going to be repealed. >> it's not going to be repealed. thank you both. soccer star tim howard is reflecting on advice for his 24-year-old self. ahead, how he finds balance between the emotional highs and lows of being a professional
